Hmm, Dorian Grey always reminds me of the James Blunt song–
“I guess it’s time I run, far far away;
Find comfort in pain
All pleasures the same
It just keeps me from trouble
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Grey
I’ve heard what they say, but I’m not here for trouble…”
Good luck with that comprehensive reading list.
